[ETW] Robert Earl Keen at Music Farm Columbia

Rising from the Texas folk scene 30 some-odd years ago, Robert Earl Keen is both a legend and a pioneer in the Americana music world. Keen spent most of the 1980’s working to make a name for himself in the music industry, moving to Nashville and touring regularly, but it wasn’t till his album West Textures and the song “The Road Goes on Forever” caught ears on the airwaves that his career really started to take off. Since then Keen’s been a journeyman of sorts, he’s never reached the high point of fame and fortune, but he’s made a career out of playing and writing his own music and having a good time doing it. That’s just the way Keen wants it.
